With the transition period having concluded, businesses are now expected to meet the prescribed standards, and regulatory scrutiny is likely to become more rigorous.”*  Her comments highlights FSSAI’s balanced regulatory strategy of encouraging voluntary compliance before moving towards stricter enforcement. While the transition period enabled food business operators to update their packaging, processes, and compliance frameworks, businesses must now ensure full adherence to the prescribed labelling requirements as regulatory oversight continues to intensify.  ![](https://ksandk.com/wp-content/uploads/Website-PR-update-2-21.png) The *Forbes India* article examines FSSAI’s recent crackdown on misleading food labels and the broader shift towards greater transparency, accountability, and consumer protection within India’s food industry.  Visit article: [https://www.forbesindia.com/article/news/deep-dive/fssai-turns-the-screw-on-mislabelling/2996711/1](https://www.forbesindia.com/article/news/deep-dive/fssai-turns-the-screw-on-mislabelling/2996711/1)  *Last Updated on 6 August, 2026* Get King Stubb & Kasiva’s legal updates in your Google feed[![Add King Stubb & Kasiva as a preferred source on Google](https://ksandk.com/wp-content/uploads/google_preferred_source_badge_light_en@2x.png)](https://www.google.com/preferences/source?q=https://ksandk.com/) --- ## Office Locations - [New Delhi](https://ksandk.com/locations/top-corporate-law-firm-in-delhi/) (HQ): +91-11-41318190 | info@ksandk.com - [Mumbai](https://ksandk.com/locations/top-corporate-law-firm-in-mumbai/): 3 offices (Nariman Point, Lower Parel, Andheri) | mumbai@ksandk.com - [Bangalore](https://ksandk.com/locations/top-corporate-law-firm-in-bangalore/): bangalore@ksandk.com - [Chennai](https://ksandk.com/locations/chennai/): chennai@ksandk.com - [Hyderabad](https://ksandk.com/locations/hyderabad/): hyderabad@ksandk.com - [Pune](https://ksandk.com/locations/pune/): pune@ksandk.com - [Kochi](https://ksandk.com/locations/kochi/): kochi@ksandk.com ## Contact - [Contact Page](https://ksandk.com/contact-us/) - General: info@ksandk.com | +91-11-41318190 - WhatsApp: +91-7428567444 - [Privacy Statement](https://ksandk.com/privacy-statement/) - [Terms of Use](https://ksandk.com/terms-of-use/)
